Inspirations of Resilience
Racism, a system of oppression based on race, is prevalent and pervasive in today’s society. We see it in the media we consume, our education, in laws and policies, and the everyday treatment of the Black community. Through time the community may even internalize these messages and believe them as fact. But through education, community, and storytelling we can still find joy and inspire change.
This program is meant to uplift the broader Black community by celebrating the student talent we have on campus, with special acknowledgement of Black women and the intersectionality of their racial and gendered experiences. We hope that attendees are able to engage with the community and be inspired to progress towards healing and liberation.
Join Trotter Multicultural Center and the DEI Office in the School of Music, Theater, and Dance for a powerful and uplifting afternoon of student performances celebrating Black art, culture, and experiences. We will have a special guest, composer Nkeiru Okoye, that attendees will be able to mingle with in anticipation of her World Premiere of “When the Caged Bird Sings.” Heavy appetizers will be provided.
